Search web search Home Singapore Asia Pacific World Business Entertainment Sports Technology Weekend Edition US-TECH Summary Reuters - 2 hours 22 minutes ago Send IM Story Print Oracle CEO Ellison to testify Monday in SAP trial OAKLAND, California - Oracle Corp <ORCL.O> Chief Executive Larry Ellison is expected to blast arch-rival SAP <SAPG.DE> for stealing its software and costing the U.S. company billions of dollars of revenue when he takes the stand Monday in a trial that is enthralling Silicon Valley. The German company has admitted that a subsidiary wrongly downloaded thousands of Oracle's software files but says it had been unaware of the violations. Facebook revs up mobile effort with Deals PALO ALTO, Calif - Facebook, revving up its mobile services for the 200 million people who now use the world's largest social network on their phones, has created an avenue for retailers from Macy's <M.N> to Gap Inc <GPS.N> to offer deals to nearby customers. The new Deals feature builds on three-month old "Places" -- which lets users broadcast their location, among other things -- and lets merchants shoot special offers to Facebook mobile users who "check in" from the vicinity of their stores. Dell to focus on services expansion as demand recovers HONG KONG - Dell Inc <DELL.O>, the world's No.2 PC maker, will focus its M&A activity on expanding IT services in specific markets as it diversifies beyond its core PC business, a senior executive said on Thursday. The company would not concentrate on making huge acquisitions in the near future, Steve Schuckenbrock, global president for Dell's large enterprise business, told a news conference. Samsung sees selling 40 million smartphones in 2011: report - Samsung Electronics Co <005930.KS> plans to sell more than 40 million smartphones worldwide in 2011, double the projection for the current year, the Nikkei business daily reported citing a senior official at the South Korean company. Shin Jong-kyun, head of Samsung's mobile division, told reporters in Seoul that the firm expects to sell more than 20 million smartphones this year, up from the 18 million units eyed at the beginning of the year, the paper said. Google and Facebook to face tougher EU privacy rules BRUSSELS wants stronger privacy rules to give Internet users more control over how social-networking sites such as Facebook, or search engines such as Google <GOOG.O> use their personal information. The new rules, which would overhaul 15-year-old laws, will be prepared next year, following public consultations, EU officials said. Military ready for war in cyberspace WASHINGTON - The military's new Cyber Command, responsible for shielding 15,000 military computer networks from intruders, has become fully operational, the Defense Department said on Wednesday. More than 100 foreign intelligence organizations are trying to break into U.S. networks, Deputy Defense Secretary William Lynn wrote in the September/October issue of the journal Foreign Affairs. Some already have the capacity to disrupt U.S. information infrastructure, he said. New hologram technology brings 3-D to life CHICAGO - Executives may not be able to beam a full three-dimensional image of themselves across the world just yet but researchers are a step closer to 3-D real-time images, an advance in holographic technology that could make video conferencing far more lifelike. Nasser Peyghambarian of the University of Arizona and colleagues said on Wednesday their new holographic technology can project a near 360-degree image to another location that updates every two seconds. Asustek to join tablet parade with new models in January TAIPEI - Taiwan's Asustek Computer Inc <2357.TW> is set to start selling its first tablet computers in January next year, joining other tech rivals to compete with Apple Inc <AAPL.O> in the fast-growing market. An Asustek official said on Thursday the company will sell its EeePad tablets running Windows software in January and then others with Google's <GOOG.O> Android system in April, but the selling prices have not yet been decided. LG Elec to launch 8.9-inch tablet early 2011: source SEOUL - LG Electronics Inc, the world's No.3 handset vendor, plans to launch an 8.9-inch tablet device based on an upcoming version of Google's Android operating system, a source close to the matter said on Thursday. The device, to run on Google's upcoming "Honeycomb" operating system tailored to tablet PCs, will be rolled out in South Korea and overseas early next year, the source said, who asked not to be identified as the new Google system has not been announced yet. SAP agrees to pay $120 million to Oracle: sources SAN FRANCISCO - Germany's SAP AG has agreed to pay $120 million to Oracle Corp in return for a promise by the U.S. company not to seek punitive damages in its suit against SAP for software theft, according to sources familiar with the agreement. The legal drama in the case, which has captivated Silicon Valley, further heightened when Hewlett-Packard Co <HPQ.N> refused a subpoena for Leo Apotheker, its new chief executive and a former CEO of SAP, to testify in the case.
